 |  possible, but that's the "problem" with human ear and subjective noise tests; they can not be 100% representive for everybody who reads the site.

| Will there be some testing with the fans mounted directly on a XP120? That would be intresting. |

| Because then the size of the fan motor and air pressure would be more important. |

| the difference in CPU temp will be less pronounced, as well as noise signature. using them as case fans gives to most realistic numbers for air movement and noise.

| Snoop! I need those rubber thingies now, the vibration is a major noise source in my case. What would be nice, is 10 second MP3 sample for all fans at all voltages. That way everyone could do the subjective noise testing themselves. |

 | The noise in using fan on a Heatsink is a compound effect; as the air is blowing onto the heatsink with irregular surface produces different sound effect; unlike using it as case ventilation which can also be affected by the shape/design of fan grill. 120mm fan is not always the ideal size for CPU HS cooling. "Think" what you like, Rutar.

and 10 points for Rutar on the Snoop Doggy I hope it was not offensive, it was not meant to be, I was searching for 6 second sample and came along that one which includes "shush" and "educate"
